Hotel California by Aycon

Hotel California, Montenegro: The swankiest beach front joint affording the luxe, iconic view of Stefan Sveti island. Everyone cries foul about the food but it’s a stunning beach spot for the iconic old Aman hotel gazing. #eatstylishtravelstylish

Excellent hotel, clean, friendly staff, delicious breakfast, the best place in Montenegro!

Great hotel, very quiet, amazing view. Very nice, professional staff. Will definitely be back.

5 star hotel in all but leisure facilities. Spotlessly clean, good breakfast, decent sized rooms and perfect locaction. Probably worth paying extra for sea view. Service could be a bit slow and dour at times but you get used to that. There are a lot of stairs when you leave the hotel!!

Absolutely amazing hotel. Beautiful views, private beach, good choice of foods for breakfast buffet, food was delicious in the restaurant. What made the holiday for me was how welcoming the staff was. Giving recommendations of walks, restaurants, places to visit etc. This has been the perfect holiday. We will be returning. Thank you for the great hospitality.

The hotel at Sveti Stefan offers a breathtaking view of the sea, making every morning unforgettable. If you're staying here, I highly recommend booking a room with a sea view, it's absolutely worth it!

However, our experience with room service on the first night was a letdown. After a long day of travel, we opted for the convenience of in-room dining but were disappointed by both the quality and the pricing. The meal, just a burger with a few chips and a chicken fillet with vegetables cost 45 euros, which didn’t meet the quality. After that, we chose not to dine at the hotel's restaurant again. The drink prices at the hotel were also on the higher side, but that's expected in the area.

Thankfully, there are some great alternatives nearby. Caffe Caffe, located just above the hotel (though you’ll need to climb a good number of steps), offers affordable and reasonable prices. Drago Restaurant is another fantastic option worth visiting.

On a positive note, the room service itself was impeccable—10/10! The staff consistently kept the room spotless, refreshed the towels daily, and ensured the bedding was always well-made. The bed was large and very comfortable, although the pillows were too soft and caused a bit of neck discomfort.

The shower had excellent water pressure, exactly what I needed. The bathroom featured bright lighting and marble flooring, creating a clean and elegant feel. No complaints.

The hotel's private beach was a highlight. The sunbeds were comfortable, and the setting made it a perfect place to relax. However, the beach bar (which I believe is part of the hotel) also charged steep prices, and the drinks were served in plastic cups with too much ice. The staff at the beach bar weren’t very welcoming and rarely smiled, which can be a bit off putting when considering purchasing drinks. The receptionist lady (I think her name is Daniela?) was friendly and welcoming.

All in all, I would stay here again for the incredible views, excellent house keeping service, and beach access, but the food and drink prices at the hotel need improvement.

Have been coming here every summer for the last couple of years, I never get tired of this view. The hotel is super luxurious, and the food has been better and better every year! Also there is a great choice of wines to pair with many different dishes. Make sure to catch the sunset as it is the most incredible thing from the hotel terrace :)

The place is beautiful by nature. Its an excellent experience to stay at least one night at sveti stefan when being nearby. The hotel its great, staff is thoughtful and the service is great. I definitely recommend this place.
